I stopped playing PS for a while and since have moved off of Gentoo 64-bit and to Ubuntu Breezy 64-bit. I'm downloading the 3.014b.bin from a mirror and was wondering if it's safe to just execute the bin and install that way? Will I need to install the fix from http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=22947.0 post 2? I tried filtering through recent posts about the latest version but it seems most people are upgrading from an older version or not working in Ubuntu on a 64-bit proc.

Just install the bin and run the updater. You need nothing else.

ok, it's just that I downloaded through both the filecloud mirror and bittorrent, and both .bin's caused a segfault.
this is what I see
$ ./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.014b.bin
(main.tcl:11597): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib
(main.tcl:11597): Gdk-WARNING **: cannot set locale modifiers
(main.tcl:11597): Gdk-WARNING **: Error converting from UTF-8 to STRING: Conversion from character set 'UTF-8' to 'ISO-8859-1' is not supported
(main.tcl:11597): Gdk-WARNING **: Error converting from UTF-8 to STRING: Conversion from character set 'UTF-8' to 'ISO-8859-1' is not supported
Segmentation fault
does the same as root.
edit: I tried using the --mode xwindow option and it installed!

That error message you get, it either means your Xlib is a bit old, or you locale is set wrong.
But I'm a linux noob, so I really don't know how to fix it.. :-X
-
Not at all. The segfault is because he's got 64-bit GTK, or no GTK libs, and it's a 32-bit installer. --mode xwindow will run it in X only, which he does have the libs for.

Thanks for the info, Xordan.
As I said, I'm just a linux noob :-[
